[SOLVED] Parblo Coast10.1 Graphics Tablets

An experimental driver for this tablet monitor is now available:

https://github.com/Skrylar/parblo-coast

The driver allows you to get evdev events. X will unhelpfully treat this as a mouse, so you will need to modify your xorg.conf:

Section "InputClass"
        Identifier "Parblo Coast 10"

        MatchUSBID "0b57:8534"
        MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
        Driver "wacom"
EndSection

Tested with Krita, and it works fine (pressure support.) Tablet has no tilt information, and despite having an eraser nib it doesn't report anything different from the pen*.

You will have to twiddle around with DisplayLink (a different beast) to use the device as a monitor.

* There might be a way to finagle this information from the tablet, but I don't have any packet captures from the Windows driver.
